Mayor's Cup - Race 4


If we can keep avoiding the big mistakes and continue to improve each of our jobs, we can move up into striking distance of the leaders.

We need to leave the dock at 1730 hours to be ready for the first prep sound at 1820.

Let me know if you are in or out.

Saturday, May 24 - Sunday, May 25, 2008 ANNAPOLIS TO ST. MICHAELS
with the Miles River Race Back on Sunday


We did this race last year as a tune up for the Newport Ocean Race and it was a good time. The party at the Miles River YC was especially good. Infrared will anchor in the yacht club's basin since they provide launch service.

It is possible to camp onshore if you have some compact equipment.

Let me know if you are interested.

(Obviously, if we go to the Baltic Yachts Rendezvous in Sardinia, we won't be doing this regatta!)

It might be a bit of a project to get Infrared to the rendezvous, but I'll bet we have a blast in the Mediterranean!

Crew are encouraged to purchase Mega Million lottery tickets to fund this expedition.
